I watched that last night. I also watched another hour and a half's worth.
Watching him drive Steve McQueen's Jaguar XKSS was way cool. Watching a multimillion dollar car go down the highway is unbelievable. :cool:

I'll bet that owner was sweating bullets driving around knowing those Federal Mogul heads don't have water passages in them.

Thanks Ron. That was enjoyable.
How is the Ford-inational coming?

Ol' Ron 09-04-2014 02:03 PM

Re: Take a Ride with Jay
 

It's coming, too many little things, that keep croping up, and considering it's for the grand kids. I just want everything to be right. PLUS Plus my back has been giving me problems which limits mt work day, If it wasn't for my froend Rob, I wouldn't be this far. However, It runs and drives great, even had my grand daughter drive it. I've made a movie about it and will post it when we get it on the road with some performance and mileage figers.

Ron, thank you very much for the link. That was great story by Bruce Meyer, and it was nice to seem him in person and talking as you usually only read about him and his vintage hot rod collection like the Pierson Bros. coupe. Very cool to actually hear and see the '48 Hot Rod mag cover car rolling along the street. Hope you can come to the "Gathering of the Faithful "this fall with George Perry.

Not sure I'll be up to it, but I'll give it a try. I'd like to address the guys on combustion chambers and tuning, if they're interested.

Thought it way cool that Jay & Co kept it real .... did not cut out the uniqueness of owning a 65 year old + hot rod - cooling system hick upping, brake pull etc - great peice of real deal history - thanks for sharing! :D
